How many times more acidic would precipitation at 3.6 pH be than normal precipitation?

Precipitation with a pH of 3.6 would be 100 times more acidic than normal precipitation, which typically has a pH around 5.6. This is because pH is measured on a logarithmic scale, so each unit change represents a tenfold difference in acidity.


What does dbz mean in weather?

In weather, dBZ stands for decibels of reflectivity. It is a unit used to measure the intensity of radar signals that bounce off precipitation or other objects in the atmosphere. A higher dBZ value typically indicates heavier precipitation.


How in terms of collision theory how a decrease in concentration can change the rate of a precipitation reaction?

Decrease in conc. means decrease in no. of molecules per unit volume. Since, molecules or atoms will less in number, the no. of colliding particles will be less. This will lead to decreased precipitation

What are the differences between post precipitation and co - precipitation?

Co precipitation = Simultaneous precipitation of more than one compound from a solution Post precipitation = It is a process during the precipitate in the mother liquor; a second precipitation is slowly precipitate with the precipitating agent.


What is the Difference between co precipitation and post precipitation?

• Precipitation is settling down of insoluble particles from a solution. Co-precipitation is a process in which normally soluble compounds are carried out of solution by a precipitate. • In precipitation, normally insoluble compounds are precipitated. But in co-precipitation normally soluble compounds are precipitated. • Co-precipitation incorporates contaminants into the precipitate, whereas precipitation can result in both pure and contaminated precipitates.


What is the scientific name for rainfall?

Why does acid precipitation weather rock faster than normal precipitation does?

Acid precipitation weather rocks faster than normal precipitation because acid precipitation has a higher concentration of acid than normal precipitation.


When occurs precipitation?
